I thought BTAC was all in the lottery toward the end of the year.

This one was weird. I haven't had the Heights location as my "award" location for well over a year and a half. They did a raffle for Pappy and this Stagg quite a while ago. I didn't get anything but they said I was high enough on their list that it triggered an email when they got another shipment in. Sounded strange to me but I just said thank you and headed up there.

So a 20% markup over SRP - seems like the exact kind of thing I'm talking about

Ah, copy that.

I just found their channel a couple weeks ago and really enjoy their content, especially the blinds. Looks like their raffle exploded this year. They said they wanted to double their donations from the previous year, and looks like have quadrupled it.

Yep. They might hit 100K before Friday!

Is this the one they just released?

Yeah, it was packaged with a peerless single barrel for $129 I think. The peerless was actually very good, they might still have a few. Btw, not sure if you are able to get down there on Wednesdays, but they should be releasing MWND in the next 2-3 weeks. Last year was November 16th.

Thanks! I'm speechless. I got to try it in Louisville earlier this year but never thought I would find it in the wild. Especially at msrp…

Thought it was distillery release only, no?

They stopped doing distillery release so people would stop camping out. You have to win the online raffle to go pick it up at the distillery. Some limited distribution still, but not sure how much

It has hit the Total Wines in Dallas but is lottery only. They had 3 cases at TW Lewisville for the entire city (unless their other store, Las Colinas, gets some for the lottery too).

That's what they told us at the distillery a couple of weeks ago. Said a few bottles got out, but not many.

It was in the back room. I was just chatting with the guys in my local place and they asked if I wanted a bottle. I can't even remember how it came up, I was shocked.

Talking to them afterward they said they saw it on their list of possible allocated bourbons in the shipment but didn't think they would actually get it. They were surprised it was on the truck.

So really just lucky timing and being friendly with the people that work there.

Yep I got one of the packs too. The Peerless is okay to me, tastes a little young. Should make a good old fashioned!

I'm probably set on Midwinter, still have a couple cases from 2 years ago when it was still only $100 a bottle.

Any thoughts on the Larceny BP on shelves now?

Picked one up today at Specs in Plano along with a ECTB. Toasted barrel was a bit too oaky for me but curious how it opens up. Larceny BP was very tasty. Hot at 126 but I like high proof stuff. Was my first experience with either and enjoyed the Larceny much more than the ECTB. Would recommend grabbing one if you see it at retail.

I'm a big fan of ECBP, LBP is a bit cheaper and on the shelf at a local now at $68. I'll have to stop by tomorrow.

I did pick up New Riff Rye Single Barrel, bit thin even for 112p, touch hot, I don't mind hot if it also has depth.

Haven't had ECTB yet. This time of year is just brutal for the bourbon budget.

I did not find it very enjoyable at all. If the budget is tight this is the bottle to skip.

I know that some people don't like toasted bourbons, but EC Toasted is one of my favorite bottles. I always grab it when I find it and it's always a favorite when I pour it for guests.

Yep I love it, having a pour right now actually. I'm not a big proof head so a 94 proof bourbon with some character is right up my alley. To each his own though!
